LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, MARCH 27, 1838 PUBLICATIONS. THE CORN QUESTION. T HE PILOT.—" Fear not, but trust in - Prov. ( fence," his late Majesty's favourite Song, Written by THOMAS HAVNES BAYI.Y, Esq. Price .9.5. (From the WeeMy True Sun.) An adherent of the Ministry, Colonel Seale, has this week obtained a splendid triumph. He has actually got leave to in troduce a bill for " grinding foreign corn in bond." This grand question was carried by a majority of :35. Surely the list of the majority will be published in letters of gold. But then how grievous is the reflection that the highly excited hopes of the twenty-five or thirty millers who expect to benefit by the measure are doomed to be blighted in the house of he reditary wisdom. Seriously this petty paltering legislation upon commercial questions is only worthy of an assembly of delegates from the nursery. Looking at the trade of a miller alone, it would be quite fair that whether one man or one thousand men found it beneficial to grind and re export Foreign Corn, permission to do so should be given by law. But this is only a fraction of a deep and universal injury to the community, and there is no reason a few millers or a few shipowners should be released from their share of the burthen it occasions. No, no ; let u= have the voices of the millers to swell the shout of universal execration which some day or other will be raised against the upholders of general st arva ti on . W e can not afford to permit the shipowners to sink their cry of "No Corn Laws." The squires are quite right in their opposition ; the very scent of foreign flour must be an abomination in the nostrils of a land owner. If those mighty monopolists would take our advice, we would tell them, abate not a jot of your pretensions, grind the people to the earth, and take care that not even a grinding capitalist escape. When once a breach has been made in the outworks of an injustice, who knows how soon its citadel may be stormed ? We trust the House of Lords will teach the in dustrious host of this country that stragglers are not safe, and that the only hope of redress for the capitalist and the shop keeper is to cordially unite with the masses in demanding full justice. That such will be the result there is no kind of doubt. Yet though we rejoice in that blind selfishness which will ultimately lead to its own destruction, we cannot forbear to contrast the conduct of the corn monopolists, in respect to their own interests, with the manner in which they deal with the interests of the weak and unprotected. The legislature of landlords says not an atom of cheap grain shall come into,this kingdom ; " we will rigidly exclude com petition even with our poorest soils ; no matter who starves so that our rents be maintained." We venture not to dispute the wisdom of monopoly, for those who thereby profit say that it is wise. We desire not to call in question the honesty of excluding competition in corn growing, for the exclusive corn growers say that it is only common justice—to themselves. , We scarcely dare to murmur out a suggestion, that consumers of corn and employers of capital have interests to be con sidered, for the corn growers tell us, with ferocious yells, that all must perish rather than the landed interest be thwarted in its wildest freaks. Be it so. We are the slaves of the laud owners, and " to hear is to obey." With all submission, we endeavour to educe arguments in 'favour of the tyranny of our tyrants, and we believe that we have found the true principle of legislation to consist in pro tecting actual interests against competition. Delighted to have reduced even tyranny to a method, we ;east our mind's eye around, and to our surprise observe the ;self-same legislators who have so carefully protected them selves from competition, endeavouring, by no small pains and with enormous injustice, to promote competition against the fortunate owners of labour in British Guiana. Here the con victions we had attained to with difficulty must be reversed. Monopoly of high wages is unwise, although the free negroes, the receivers of wages, assert its wisdom. Combinations to raise the price of labour are criminal, notwithstanding, the ex-• elusive owners of labour maintain them to be honest and use fel_to themselves. Consumers of sugar and coffee-growing capitalists are entitled to introduce competing workmen, al though the native labourers declare such competition injurious to their interests. How are these things to be reconciled, for both must be right, since both are done by those who (for our sins) are set in authority over us? We must again seek for a new princi ple, we beat about for fresh arguments, and we conclude that principles vary with localities and races of of men. Justice on the eastern side of the Atlantic is not justice on the western. Protection, which is right when applied to the interest of the British landowner, is wrong when applied to the negro la bourer. Monopoly in favour of the white corn grower may be carried out ahnsst to the ruin of his country's trade : monopoly in favour of the black hoer of sugar-canes must not be allowed to trench upon the profits of the planter. Such are the ano malies sanctioned by our rulers. And unless we suppose the simple rule to be to support the rich against the poor—the strong against the weak—the few against the many—we can find no clue to the dispensations of our lords and masters.

On Friday morning, between seven and eight o'clock, two bricklayers, named Henry Pearce and Edward Hopkins, while at work on a scaffold erected to the second story of a Louse in Barnesbury_street, Islington, were preci pitated to the ground, owing to one of the putlogs slipping from its hold in the brickwork. Pearce had his right leg broken in twu places, and Hopkins, in falling, struck hi s c hi n aga i nst the top of a door in the area with such violence, that the bone of the lower jaw was shattered into several pieces ; he also sustained a violent concussion of the brain. The unfortunate men were removed in a state of great suffering to the Univer sity College Hospital. On Monday last a weaver of Howard-town, Glos sop, enlisted into the army, and went to his late employer, Mr. Wood, accompanied by another recruit named Peter Downs, and demanded a week's wages then due to him. Mr. Wood refused to pay him, it being a rule of the trade that persons leaving without notice forfeit their wages. Downs took the man's part, and behaved with great violence, assault_ ink Mr. Wood , who gave hi m i nto t h e custody of a constable. Whilst the officer was conducting him to th e h ouse o f the Magistrate, Downs swore that he would either kill the oflic9r or himself, at the same time giving him a paper to read, which be said would convince him that he bad no right to take him into custody. As the constable was looking at the paper he perceived Downs make a lun , =e at him with a knife, which he most providentially_ avoided by stepping b ac k ; b ut b efore he could seize the man's hand, Downs plunged the knife into his own breast, and died in about two minutes.

Other French steam-boats run from Alexandria to Athens, visiting that city 108 times in the year. Austrian steamers leave Trieste for Athens every fortnight, and revisit it on their return from Constantinople and Alexandria. The ingress of these vessels to the port of Athens is about 150 times in the year. Eng lish steamers now proceed once a fortnight from the Tower stairs to Patras on their way to Corfu, and again enter it on these benefits Greece is mainly in,dplite k l 4, one of that they visit Patras fifty-two time 10 the y tl e le a i r r . retFuorrn, so our countrym en i.

A reduction of only Gd. a-day among the labouring popula tion of Great Britain, exclusive of their families, amounts to .54,750,000/.. per annum, This enormous sum, at present cir culated in wages among slio;keepers and tradesmen, might at first be added to the profits of manufacturers ; but coutpeti tion would soon reduce these to the old standard, and many of those persons who are now ornployed in manufacturing or ex changing those few comforts the norking min is enabled to purchase with the extra sixpence, would, if the redl:ti took place, be soon forced to compete with him I .K . a subsistence. l pu, i.ensfoed by strikes is We pre.mme, therefore, that the trifling when contrasted tiitlit 'illa greater evil.

FELLOW-Wonaeme.—lt would seem that every little ccasa tion from th e d a il y to il, to w hi c h corrupt an d partial institu tions have de ome l us, is requ'red to b e occupied is vigils: t watchfulness; lest we fall still lower in the scale of poverty, and lose those few trilling advantages our ueited energies have justly preserve], despite of cupidity, avarice, and exclusive power. We have, through all past times, been a persecuted and ca lumniated class; our oppressors have bowel us to the earth, and scorned us because we were down—they have kept know ledge from our reach, and taunted us with our ignorance—they have goaded some to violence by their injustice, and sweep ingly condemned all as participators in the guilt. Within these few months, the corrupt pens of the privileged, and aspersious tongues of the idle and the wealthy, have been industriously engaged in villifying and condemning the sons of labour ; they hare magnified isolated acts of violence into crimes of the blackest atrocity; they have sought to prevent justice, by slander; and what they failed to substantiate by facts, they have depicted in words of deadly meaning. Th ey , have not hesitated to condemn all our Unions, because guilty individuals have been detected in some—as reasonably might the Nobility of England be generally condemned as criminals, because the most dishonourable crimes have been broteght home to individual members. But, fellow -countrymen, while we solemnly condemn all acts of violence, we greatly question whether the violent pro ceedings of Unionists were the originating motives for this • Parliamentary investigation. We rather suspect them to be the anxious desire, for cheapened labour, and firr disuniting the peoole. Unions of the people are the weakness of their op pressors, and the cheap labour of the industrious is the gain of the privileged orders of society—do we want any other • reason to account for the inquiry ? We have been told that Trades' Unions are mischievous monopolies. Well, so are the exclusive monopolies of law-making between Peers and ten-pounders —so are the Trades' Unions among lawyers-.-the chartered monopolies of the East and West—the agricultural monopoly is also highly mischievous—so are guzzling and use less corporations, and a multitude of others that might be named. Therefore, why begin by condemning us? Simply, friends, because our combinations may endanger the existence of all the rest. We arc gravely condemned for charging large sums for admission into our unions; those who make the charge forget, we presume, their own union fees. They also forget that the capital we have honestly accumulated for the purpose of sup porting our members when out of employment ; when sick, ac cidentally wounded, or unfortunate ; or for burying them when dead —cannot be justly shared with those who keep from us at their pleasure, or join us at their convenience. Our so called " insolent" dictation to employers has been denounced in the strongest terms ; the presumption that work ing men should dare refuse to bow submission to their masters' terms, or work with those who will, is indeed intolerable to men of wealth and power. They choose not to remember our toilsome condition from youth to age ; the threats and taunts to which we are daily subject ;• the proscriptions and persecu tions we meet with in our efforts to sustain our wages ; the documentary terms of base servility often proposed as the alter native of "work or starve ;" and, with all our care and fruga lity, the end of our industrious career, too often, in the Union workhouse. We have been recently assured by certain newspaper writers, that all our combinations are ineffectual and mischievous, as we cannot raise our wages above the natural level. Let us hear what professors of political economy say on this subject. The natural rate of wages, according to Dr. Smith, "is rot only the commodities that are indispensably necessary for the support of life, but whatever time custom of the country renders it indecent for creditable people of the lowest order to be without." You will perceive, therefore, if the working classes of England are content with low diet, bad clothing, and mud cabins, they will continue to compete with one another, till the natural rate of wages is so reduced as only to procure such miserable subsistence, instead of those superior comforts which their increasing knowledge and industrial powers have established as the "custom" of their country. But, then, we shall be told that the amount of wages must be governed by the supply of labourers with the demand for their labour, and, therefore, it is a folly to combine to en deavour to force the price of labour in opposition to this law. We reply, that Trade Unions do, to a great extent, regu late the number of labourers in the labour market. If, for instance, the present demand for labour is only equal to 100 labourers, and if there be 120 competing fur this demand, without any union or understanding among them, they will continue to undersell ono another till their wages are brought down to the lowest point of subsist ence. But, if they unite in a trade society, and, by subscrib inetheir means, agree to take the twenty sur f lus hands out of market (by paying them, so much weekly), they cut off takewages, advantage of any increased demand, and to get senploy inent for their twenty surplus lalsourers. Now, thi s is no fan eiful theory—it is the mode adopted by many trade societies in town and country. _We will here pass over ether advantages, such as support in sickness and old age, and aiding their sur plus numbers to emigrate, which many , societies embrace, and confine ourselves more immediately to the question. But we shall he told that there is a point beyond which we cannot force our wages ; granted—but that is no reason why we should not try to keep our present position, and maintain, as far as we are able, a respectable class of workmen in the country in well as shopkeepers and tradesmen who depend on them, who will contend for comfortable subsistence, and, rather than be content with less, will take refuse in other countries, if they cannot im prove the condition of their own. But then it will be said, " that if we insist on high wages we cannot meet foreign competition." In reply, we would urge them not to forget the superior advantagea of a profita ble home consumption. For it wages are to he continually reduced to meet foreign competiti o n, th ere w i ll be a gradual lessening of our hom e trade; the respectable class of shop keepers and tradesmen, who are somewhat prosperous by rea son of the present wages of the working classes--if these wages were reduced down, orally ways approximating, to those of our unfortunate Irish brethren —would soon be driven from the country, or sink into the same degraded class we should all be reduced to—time mere starving conductors of the splendid machinery of England; manufacturing to clothe the naked of the world and be in rags ourselves. Nay, as low we e lea tend to perpetuate ignorance, and degrade and bruaelifte a people, it is questionable whether the capital now employed 1 .1 - 1 bur extensive manufactures would havv ,guy security Mfr its exis tence; for as similar caused have prevented capital from taking root in Irelaad, so might the boast of England be driven to other climes, But it has been said that we should retain the same amount of wages if we had no combinations. " No," says Mr. M'Culleeh (no bad judge by the way)—" No master," says he, " ever willingly consents to raise wages ; and time claim either of one , or of a few individuals, for an advance of wages, is likely to be disregarded as long as their fellows continue to work at the old rates. It is only when the whole or the Eteater part of the workmen combine, or act in a sinneltaneous man ner (which is equivalent to a combination), and refuse to work without receiving an increase of wi,ges, that it becomes the interest of the master to cchiply with their deriiand." Our own experience proves the truth of this, Without combina tion we should vapidly be reduced to the starvation / wa it amid, even with the advantages of union, we arc centinu.;ll; being called upon to act on the defensive again:;, (1m employ ) : ers, individually or eolleetively, who cannest resist th e tempt s .. tion of rodociug our wages in order to add to their profits. tint, even when they are most ateeeeasful in their object, their benefits are fleeting, as the competition between themselves soon brings down their profits to their fornicr level, The imm.nse sacrifice of capital occasioned by strikes has been gri,atly lamented by soma persc4ns, and eloquently en larged upon to our p d by But we would ask, do strikes always originate with us are ours only remembered, while those of our employers are justified or forgotten ? We at ono adroit the evils of the sacrifice, and have generally I the strongest reasons for lamenting it-,.we see and feel result in our erg and our homes. time But have these persons calculated the sacrifice and consi dered the result qf our aubmissicom to any reduction our em ployers might propose witho u t a struggle? We respectfully submit our own experience, that the immediate loss is future gain,.not only t o us, b ut to society at large, in preserving the working classes from poverty and ignorance, the inevitable re sult of low waeos—clearly demonstrated in every country where men are badly paid for their labour. If ho combination existed among us, and emplopra eould freely tolect the over. burthened and timid poyiltm of their workmen propos their own selfish 'ierv:llq terms, the cenaequences ► would be soon ' 1 PP41 7, 0 Fongtt e ; Us—hypocrisy, cunning, and tame servility would be ;generated— and a hundred men in one employ would afford a hundred instrument:, far reducing all to the same de graded level.

Fellow-workmen, we have deemed it advisable thus to no. tine the charges that have been recently re- echoed against cut• unions. We do not contend that they are the most perfect arrangements that could be devised ; but we feel confident that without them we should soon be reduced to a state of misery of which we can form little conception. At present those who arc not in union have their w iges protected by three who are. But if any new enactment is to result from the forthcoming in. quiry which will en lang,er the existence of our unions, we may as well cast to the winds our hopes of progressive im. provement and brighter prospects; for, with the poverty and degrada:ion that will inevitably ensue, will retrrn tile 44 11( u ranee and brutality of the people, and tho riotings and %Amin; which characterise former days, l3rethren, if we have in any way sitecoolati !r, convlnoiog you of the great importance of ttliiiifi, a n d the necessity of bringing all your pottota itntl Clergies together to resist any new infringe rticnt th your most sacred rights, we shall not deem air labGbr altogether vain.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. (From the Hanzpshire Telegraph.) Poersmotern, March 24.—The Volcano steamer left Malta on the 19th of February with mails and passengers for Fal mouth, and on the 24th of February, when 100 miles east of of Cape do Gette, she encountered a severe gale, in which she lost her jibboom, jolly-beat, and life-buoy —seas 'washing right over her. On the 28th anchored for sheltered in the Bali of Mahomet, ten miles N. N. E. from the Cape. The wind increased to an ae ful hurricane at midnight the sea was was one complete sheet of foam ; the Volcano was driven from her anchors athwart the hawse of an English brig, the Helen, for Glasgow, laden with brimstone. The brig's foremast and bowsprit went immediately, and she soon sank, but the crew were saved by getting on board th e V o l cano; the latter then slipped h er cables and got out to sea, but not before she had received considerable injury ; fortunately, she succerled in making Cal thagena harbour, from whence, after und, rg,ohys a temporary refit, s h e w ill proceed for Falmouth, and may bbe expected on the 28th inst. The Edinburgh, 74, Captain Henderson, is ordered. to England, to convey troops to North America. She is to .Leave her lower-deck guns, and part of her crew, with the Tagus squadron.

Nye regret to state, that on Saturd,4 morning last, , bout eight o'clock, the Unity, of 80 tons liurthen, belonging to this port, the p; - operty of the mastu, Captain Stevens, went down in a squall of wind, off Lowestoft; it is supposed, in consequence of her cargo, which consisted of wheat, having shifted. The Unit, was on lrer passage from 13urham, in Norfolk, to London; and so sudden was the accident, that it was with the utmost ditil , ralty the crew could save themselves, which they happily affected; but it gives us pain to add, that Mrs. Stevens, th-a wife of the Captain, who was in the cabin at the time, unfortunately perished with the vessel and cargo. Woj understand the vessel was insured. —Suffolk Chronicle. • Goon JUDGES the last Beaconsfield cattle show a gentleman exhibited a good barren heifer, but was disappointed of the prize. At the Aylesbury show he won with the same beast the prize awarded to the best in -calf heifer. This " barren" " in-calf " heifer was killed, very fat, at Christmas.
